Read my previous answer to this. It was removed deliberately.
A 'news' item from 2024 spells 'This project is dead'.

The absence of releases signals that more than anything.

Instead, the number of commits during the last week is shown (the "43" shown today is a live counter, clickable, BTW). It tells much more than a 2-year old news item that FPC is alive.

Uninitiated users can't judge if those commits are in a remote area of the project or not.   Is it alive or twitching ? :-)

Besides, I think the forum is the real place to see for news.

Too noisy. The site is for new users, go find your own news is not a good look.

The point of a news section is to have a concise channel for authoritative communication that is widely viewed.
